So in one night, not even naked, I
exposed my cretinous ghosts to
someone who heard the words
and nodded. "I feel that."
What's it like to know, and
not even know why,
someone's eyes may well
convey the truth?
So in one night, not even naked, I
exposed my cretinous ghosts to
someone who heard the words
and nodded. "I feel that."
Here I thought it was wrong
that something's wrong with me --
but I function, if improperly
to your specifications.
Here I meet another functional
dysfunction holder,
boldly, in a micro moment,
exposing all of his target tattoos
with an eager, upward tug of the sleeve.
Here I thought I was wrong,
but I'd been misled,
along a familiar path
toward the ravine.
